TRIUMPH 1500 Rare

As of 2026 Q2, 253 TRIUMPH 1500s remain registered in the UK — a genuinely rare sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 260 in 2024 Q2 — only 97% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 7 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 3 a year (1.1% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2090 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer. Tellingly, 51% are declared SORN — kept off the road in garages and barns rather than driven, the signature of a car being looked after rather than used up. In all, the TRIUMPH 1500 is rarer than 50% of the 2,315 UK car models we track.

Survivors over time

How rare is it?

Rare — fewer than 1,000 remain (253 in the latest data).

Rarer than 50% of the 2,315 UK car models we track.

📉 Rate of decline

Disappearing at about 3 a year (1.1% of survivors). At that pace roughly 240 would remain in 5 years, and half the current fleet is gone by around ~2090.

A constant-rate projection from the last 3 years. The last survivors tend to linger far longer than this — cherished cars don't vanish on a fixed date.
